5 Thoughts You Had If You Went Black Friday Shopping
Cache

For many Black Friday is their least favorite day of the year and they think of the shoppers as crazy people. For others, this day is their favorite day of the year. The deals are great and you can treat yourself but also treat your friends and family. There is something about shopping at 1 or 6am in the morning that you cannot beat especially with how great the deals are. However, if you are one of those Black Friday Shoppers, there are a lot of thoughts going through your mind from the start of the day to the end.

1. OK, I won't spend too much money.

How long did you say this to yourself? Probably until you went into the first store and saw the 50% off entire store sign. Don't worry, we were all there. You're just treating yourself, right? You can always spend less next year.

2. These sales are great!

As you try to tell yourself not to go crazy, the sale just makes everything look that much better! And of course when you get a free blanket or tote bag buying everything in your cart is that much more necessary.

3. Why can people not walk?

Sometimes I think that people need to be taught how to walk in a crowded place. Please walk on the right side and please do not walk like a snail. This is Black Friday people, pick up the pace because we have places to go. And if I accidently bump into you I am gonna say it is your fault because you were walking too slow...Sorry.

4. These lines are ridiculous.

Ridiculous? Absolutely. But will you still stand for them to get everything ou have in your hands? Definitely.

5. Wow, I spent way too much money.

RIP to the money you worked hard for and god bless anyone who will have to pay off the insane credit card bill. Looking at all your bags makes you feel good now but we all know what we were doing to ourselves. We won't be able to shop again for a few years but not until Cyber Monday is over.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
